Training

Background.

We are a husband-and-wife team that specializes in helping newcomers and novices learn how to shoot. With our backgrounds in shooting and teaching, we found that we enjoyed introducing friends and relatives to pistol shooting. One thing led to another, and we decided to increase our own formal training and achieve NRA Instructor certification. We now use our training to benefit others.

What we teach

Currently, the main course we teach is the NRA Basic Pistol course. This course is intended for all individuals —regardless of previous shooting experience or NRA-affiliation. (In other words, you don't have to be an NRA member—although you might find it worthwhile.)

The first part is a classroom portion, which covers safety, handgun operation, safety, ammunition, safety, and shooting technique. (Oh, it also covers safety.) The second portion of the class consists of range time, where you put the theoretical knowledge into practice. The course fee includes the rental of a .22 pistol and ammunition, although of course you can bring your own handgun to shoot instead.

Of course, we also provide personal instruction by special arrangement should you desire instruction or review of a special area of interest.

Upcoming classes

We have pre-scheduled classes, but are also available for special classes for you and your family or friends.
